Ooh! Now it's getting interesting! :D Lex 08:33, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

I don't quite understand how, but I'm sure a movie reference explains it all. Noxigar 14:53, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
So I'm assuming that the two Duke's relationship... It's a "Friendly Rivalry" type, right? Lex 17:00, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Sort of. They both have the same rank and send bounty hunters for the same person. I don't think much of them being rivals, on the grounds that the Black Duke's phylactery is in the Thin White Duke's freezer. At some points they are rivals, though. Noxigar 17:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
No, I didn't really mean "rivals" in that sense.. More like "They both have a competitive nature to each other". Like, they don't feel any hate for each other, and they're quick to compliment the other if they do something right, but they still want to get the one up on each other.

I suppose that works. I made Black Duke based on the lich archetype found in Dungeons and Dragons among other places where liches are used. In fact, there's even a Magic: the Gathering card known as "Phylactery Lich". It is my favorite amongst the set Phylactery Lich is in. Noxigar 17:08, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Phylactery Lich is a good card, especially now that there's Proliferate and you can multiply the Phylactery tokens onto multiple artifacts. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 01:23, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
He can has proliferate? Oh shit, brah. I thought him and Liege of the Tangle didn't really benefit from proliferate. I also have 4 copies of Dat Axe to make sure the item on the counter is indestructible. Noxigar 03:26, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
Proliferate works on any kind of counters. Loyalty, Poison, Phylactery, Charge, even untyped ones like Protean Hydra's. Artisan of TortureThey call me Big T BLOODArtisan of Torture 03:47, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
Well then... looks like Lich will need to be bounced to get a phylactery counter on several Darksteel Axes to make Dat Axe worthy of porliferation. I am running a Black/White control Deck atm. Maybe if I can find some Miraculous Escapes or whatever bounces in the color pie of White and/or Black. It does need Sorin Markov and Gideon Jura to make proliferate a bit more relevant to the Deck, but otherwise I seem to do fine in holding my own in Multiplayer Magic games with it.
